You whose hands are more innocent than mine

It is said that the greatest loves are often tragic. When I think of love stories, I often think of Vesna Parun, a Croatian poetess, and one of her poems in particular. It is a poem that Vesna wrote to the wife of the man that was her only love and it is the most tender of poems that I have ever read. This poem has been translated by many, but today I have felt like translating it myself.

I'm still impressed by the fact that you a professor and even translating wonderful poems. Thank you a lot for being so creative and talented introducing us to Croatian poetry! I must confess I love your blog more and more day by day;)oh, I also want to mention those photographs are so beautiful! Have a fabulous time!
